Reposted by astraeDaniel Burke - 🍺Innkeep @innkeep.bsky.social · 13/04/2026The thing about actually making your video game real is that your projected imagination of what it will be is gradually substituted with concrete reality, and that reality is mostly going to be pretty bad until the game is almost finished. This is pretty heavy psychologically. 1022331

astrae @astraesoftware.bsky.social · 20/03/2026what i'm saying. there's also another argument in that minecraft doesn't guarantee you anything. gcc is licensed under gplv3+, and that *cannot* change. whereas minecraft any day now could ban modding, and they would be completely legally in the right to do that. which in my eyes means it's... 2/3 100
astrae @astraesoftware.bsky.social · 20/03/2026i see, thanks for clarifying. i would still say probably no, for a couple reasons first, modding with a mod loader is different from actually modifying the game's source. i'm not a minecraft modder so i assume you know more about this than i do but there will be limits *somewhere* if you get... 1/3 100
astrae @astraesoftware.bsky.social · 20/03/2026open contributions are actually not required for a software to be counted as foss. the freedom to modify specifically only states that you are free to redistribute modified versions of the code, not that you have to be able to modify the original (that would be really hard to define as well)... 3/4 100
astrae @astraesoftware.bsky.social · 20/03/2026all of these. you can modify gcc quite easily, just adding a printf to the start of the main function would count as a modification. if you're talking about the difficulty of getting a contribution merged (which i'm guessing you are by the second footnote), then believe it or not... 2/4 100
astrae @astraesoftware.bsky.social · 20/03/2026not sure if this is a joke question, but "free software" refers to more than just the ability to modify it. the free software foundation defines it as: - free to run - free to study - free to redistribute - free to modify obviously minecraft isn't free to run or redistribute, while gcc is... 1/4 100

astrae @astraesoftware.bsky.social · 18/03/2026the extra space in the dropdown could be used for like recently ran scenes or something, that might be useful 000
astrae @astraesoftware.bsky.social · 18/03/2026i do really like this idea but i feel like maybe the dropdown should only have scenes? i think it makes more sense for the other stuff to go behind a "...", because having it in a dropdown to me implies you could choose them as scenes to run 100
astrae @astraesoftware.bsky.social · 18/03/2026i think it would be fine to have current scene in a dropdown as long as it stays selected until you change it again. i don't think i've ever needed to really change which scene i'm running more than every so often i assume the keyboard shortcuts would still work as well so it'd probably be fine? 020

astrae @astraesoftware.bsky.social · 13/03/2026worked out how to make flame graphs, but unfortunately they don't look interesting because my code executes in 0.004 secomds apparently this is the best one i could get and i was sampling at like 1,000,000 hertz which is the highest sampling rate it would let me use without yelling at me . yay 042
